My baby dances better than your baby
My baby dances better than your baby. Seriously. My baby is at 21 weeks gestation, and s/he already knows all the moves to Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance. I know this because everyday when I shower (ok, so maybe I don’t shower everyday…don’t judge) I listen to Ga, and baby nearly jumps out of my uterus. … Read more
From fashionista to frugalista: How I’m clothing myself during pregnancy
Today, it happened. I swore to the deep depths of my soul that it wouldn’t. That I wouldn’t sink to that level. But I did. It happened before my very eyes. I bought clothes from…WAL-MART. I don’t even know who I am anymore. First, I am cooking extravegent home-cooked meals. And now I am walking … Read more
So easy, even I can make it
My path toward motherhood goes straight through the kitchen. In our past life, the fiance and I ate out every chance we got, only cooking by necessity or when the mood struck us. But now, as I am becoming more conscious of the food that I put into my body (and therefore baby’s body) I … Read more

Very early in my pregnancy, my deep paranoia came out in my dreams. I was so scared of losing him/her that I dreamt about miscarrying … Read more
Vegas is no place for a pregnant lady
When I was 15 weeks pregnant, it was time to travel to Vegas for my sister’s wedding. When she originally had the idea of a destination wedding in Sin City, I had a completely different experience in mind. Instead of late nights in clubs and casinos, it was afternoon naps and granola bars. It was … Read more
Letter from Daddy
Baby, before I even start to write this letter, I just wanted to introduce myself to you as your father. It might be a few years before you are actually able to read this and fully understand it, but it will mean that much more to me when you finally are able to. You might … Read more
Does pregnancy come with an instruction manual?
I think it’s about time I actually start writing again. I am now 17 weeks, 5 days pregnant. The pregnancy came as a total shock. We got engaged just a few weeks before it came time to buy a home pregnancy test. We weren’t even sure this was what we wanted. But when it comes … Read more
